Natürlich denken wir bei dem Begriff "Science Fiction" unmittelbar an "Krieg der Sterne" oder "Raumschiff Enterprise", doch liegen die Anfänge des Genres weit in der Vergangenheit. Bereits im 18. Jahrhundert schrieb Jonathan Swift mit "Gullivers Reisen" einen frühen Klassiker der sogenannten "Zukunftsliteratur". In dieser großen Hörbuch Box geht es nicht um technikverliebte Weltraumliteratur a la "Perry Rhodan", sondern um klassische Literatur, die sich mit dem Thema beschäftigt, wie es in der Zukunft aussehen könnte, und das sowohl höchst realistisch als auch mit großer Hingabe zur Fiktion.

Der Protagonist, der Schiffsarzt und spätere Kapitän Lemuel Gulliver, schildert sein Erlebnis: Er macht auf der Insel Lilliput die Bekanntschaft der winzigen Einwohner, die nur ein Zwölftel so groß wie die Menschen sind. Diesen kann er unter anderem dadurch behilflich sein, dass er eine Feuersbrunst mit seinem Urinstrahl löscht.

Als Gulliver wieder in England weilt, bittet ihn ein Besucher, mit ihm an Bord seines Schiffes zu reisen. Gulliver ist einverstanden. Doch das Schiff wird von Piraten überfallen. Ein christlicher holländischer Pirat will Gulliver ins Meer werfen lassen, doch der japanische Hauptmann sorgt dafür, dass er am Leben bleibt. Gulliver sagt, dass er mehr Gnade bei einem Heiden, als bei einem Mit-Christen fand. Gulliver wird in einem Boot mit Proviant ausgesetzt. Er kommt an einigen Inseln vorbei und geht schließlich bei einer an Land. Da bemerkt er, dass die Sonne seltsam verdunkelt ist.

In Brobdingnag sind nicht nur die Menschen riesig, sondern auch die ganze Natur ist hier viel größer als Lemuel Gulliver selbst. Von einem schweren Sturm vom Kurs abgetrieben, legt das Beiboot seines Schiffes an einer Insel an, um Frischwasser zu holen. Gullivers Gefährten flüchten vor einem Riesen und lassen ihn zurück, worauf er bald von Einheimischen entdeckt wird. Die Durchschnittsgröße der riesigen Inselbewohner beträgt ungefähr 18 Meter. Von einem Pächter wird Gulliver zunächst gegen Geld ausgestellt, bevor er an das Königshaus in Lorbrulgrud, der Hauptstadt von Brobdingnag, verkauft wird.
